Video Summary

The Cath PCI Registry is a database that collects patient-level data on coronary artery disease (CAD) and cardiac catheterization procedures. Participating hospitals submit data quarterly to receive feedback on optimizing patient outcomes. The registry provides hospitals with metrics for quality improvement, appropriate use criteria, PCI process, and outcomes information. It also serves as a source for comparative effectiveness research. The inclusion criteria for the registry are adult patients (≥18 years) undergoing diagnostic coronary angiography and/or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The registry has been widely adopted and includes a large amount of data from over 15 million diagnostic and 12 million PCI records. It supports quality improvement, research initiatives, clinical practice, guideline development, and public reporting. A steering committee provides oversight and direction for the registry.
